Appendix B. Calibration and Testing with PanaView
Appendix B. Calibration and Testing with PanaView
B.1 Introduction
This appendix explains how to calibrate the Model XGM868i’s analog outputs and inputs using PanaView™ interface
software. In addition, testing the optional totalizer, frequency and alarm relay outputs, and XGM hardware and
software is discussed. The appendix includes the following specific topics:
• calibrating the Slot 0 analog outputs
• calibrating option card analog outputs
• calibrating option card analog inputs and RTD inputs
• testing option card alarm relays
• testing option card totalizer and frequency outputs
• uploading XGM868i signal array data and memory data
• testing the EPROM, RAM and DAC
• setting the number of channels
• resetting the XGM868i to default values
The Model XGM868i electronics enclosure includes one slot for installation of an input/output option card. This slot is
designated as
Slot 1, and a variety of option cards are available. In addition, every Model XGM868i flowmeter includes
two built-in analog outputs (A and B) at terminal block J1, which is designated as Slot 0.
Note: Convention in this manual identifies any expansion slot as Slot X, where X is a number from 0-2. Slot 2 is used
only for data logging or RS485 option cards.
See Chapter 1, Installation, and Appendix B, Data Records, in the Startup Guide for a complete description of the
available option cards and the procedures for wiring them.
